I count myself among the masses fascinated by slow motion, and the 1080p Phantom Flex camera delivers. Cameraman Tom Guilmette got a hold of the state-of-the-art camera to shoot the World Championships of Ping Pong, and stayed up all night filming mundanity in his hotel room. As he puts it, “I opened up a wormhole shooting at 2,564 frames per second.” (For reference, the Phantom Red camera that the Jackass 3D crew used for their slow-mo shoots up to 1,000 frames per second.)

The clip features the slow-motion dance of falling coins, the wave of an impact’s vibration as it travels up a BlackBerry’s body, and endless shots of flowing water. Watch it after the jump.
